Product Information

But at this point I've seen them so many times that I'm wondering if perhaps the manufacturing challenge is not as high as I initially thought? I have purchased all of these dolls and toys with my own money so that I can express my own opinions. INCLUDES: Articulated mermaid fashion doll with color change tail, top, jacket, earrings, necklace, arm bands, purse, and sunglasses.

Some mention that it has a fantastic color and is super value, while others say that it doesn't change color, the color change is so quick, and the articulation of the hands and elbows is good. Many people believe the dolls were rushed into production soon after information leaked that spinmaster was making a mermaid themed doll line, and that MGA reused and recycled their ready made assets for the dolls (an unused head mold for a Who’s That Girl fashion doll line that never made it to production, project mc2 eyes, and a body mold that was going to be used for their unreleased Lady Gaga dolls) So I’m super interested to hear your take is on which doll line out swam the other! Despite its full (and unnecessary) range of spinning motion, the hip joint doesn't hinge forwards or backwards at all.Dolls that can’t sit straight because their hips can’t accommodate the movement or limited shoulder rotation—much less the neck joint. I really like Spin Master (they made the Liv dolls), but I wasn't completely blown away by the Mermaid High dolls or concept--it all seemed a bit generic.

BEAUTIFUL FEATURES: Jordie has gorgeous glass inset eyes and real eyelashes, as well as fantasy makeup complete with yellow eyeliner and her signature heart beauty mark.I have several Barbie mermaid heads on regular bodies, but this won't do for the Mermazes - they are way too expensive for just a head. Also, Orra's waist joint can only spin around while the other five characters have waists that can bend forwards, backwards and side-to-side. Jordie's hair is a mass of sleek micro braids that would have been perfect if it weren't for the sparse rooting at the back of the head and the two messy braids right at the very front. I just wish they would either give us 100% art-piece collector beauties, or 100% modern gimmick teen besties.
